SubscribeNotre Dame fires Charlie Weis
The University of Notre Dame responded to back-to-back 6-6 records by firing it’s football coach, Charlie Weis. They will now go out and try to hire a new coach, but what coach would really want to go to Notre Dame to coach football? I think the days of it being a serious football program are long gone. Unlike every other major football program, Notre Dame is not in a conference. This is what allows them to play Navy or UConn. Teams in a conference have to play teams in their conference.
Any coach that leaves a major football program to go to Notre Dame is living in the past.
Even though Charlie Weis was fired, the university still has to pay him his salary. He has six years remaining on his contract. This makes him the winner in all this. Getting paid to do nothing is the true American dream.
Charlie Weis is my hero.
Once again, Navy beats Notre Dame
For the second time in three years, Navy beat Notre Dame. Like the victory from two years ago, it took place in South Bend in front of the Notre Dame faithful.
How Charlie Weis is able to keep his job as the head coach is a mystery.
Notre Dame students show class by throwing snowballs at their own football team
What’s even better than watching Notre Dame get beat at home by a truly bad team? Seeing Notre Dame students demonstrate just how pathetic they really are. From Fox Sports:
Fans at first threw snow in the air, but then quickly switched to tossing snowballs toward the Notre Dame sideline. Defensive lineman Ian Williams got hit in the helmet, defensive end Ethan Johnson was struck on the left cheek and a St. Joseph County police officer on the sideline looking into the crowd got hit in the chest. An NBC camera man also was a frequent target and several snowballs reached the field, although none landed near where play was occurring.
I wish that I had watched the game. Not only do I despise the Fighting Irish, I like the Orangemen. Technically, I’m sort of kind of a Syracuse alumni in that I completed my associates degree (the 14th grade) by taking night classes at Utica College of Syracuse University. I used to go to both Syracuse football games and basketball games while I was stationed at Griffiss Air Force Base back in my Air Force days.
Good times!
